Off the Continental Divide — Fine Art

Off the Continental Divide shows broad colour bands and cropped visual parts arranged across a sheet, following the painting practice of James Rosenquist. The picture holds flat planes of blue and red with a few sharp cut edges between them. The title points to a split landscape line.

This fine art print sits on a wall where light falls on it from the side. The frame finish can match the room, a light frame on a dark wall or a dark frame on a pale wall. The matte surface keeps the flat colour planes from shining back under a lamp.

It hangs in a study corridor where you pass it each day. From the desk corner the big colour bands read first, and the cut edges between them stand out when you stop.
